Rage Against the Heavens

Mother Death

Mother Death is not a god. She is no child of Oy and not native to the Mundus Ieuvenis. She is something from outside, a child of the Void.

Mother Death does not barter or negotiate. In a world of capricious gods, she is perfectly just and fair. Only rarely does she make an exception, for reasons known only to herself – she permits the Undying King to live, and she sometimes lets souls slip through her grasp, giving rise to the undead. If this is a mistake or done by her design – well, who can say?

Mother Death appears as a wrinkly old woman with very beautiful eyes. She has a kind smile and walks with an old staff, crowned by her two ravens. It is said Mother Death sometimes visits the tormented Luni, soothing the never-dead goddess with songs about the living.
